Time to think about the Group Reads for June and July. Please nominate up to two books and second as many nominated books as your like.

I’ll start a poll of these in about a week.

I'm guessing a lot of people have read this, but I've had Love Medicine by Louise Erdrich on my shelf for years and would love a push to read it.

I have not read it! I'll second Love Medicine.

I'll nominate The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie by Muriel Spark. I've read Love Medicine and it is great so you could count this as a second (or is that a third?)

I will nominate Henry James, The Ambassadors, and Colm Toibin, The Master. I think somebody said these two go well together so if the group reads one, I can also read the other. Both are on my TBR shelf. Or, of course, the group could read both! And second Love Medicine

I will second The Master, I have it on my shelf and it has been recommended to me by a couple of people whose reading taste I usually agree with. I also would like to read Love Medicine. Another book I have been looking at is Animal's People by Indra Sinha, so I will nominate that one as well.

I will second The Master, as I too have it on my shelf and that is all I can read from at the moment.

We had two books seconded so we will make these our group reads for June and July: Love Medicine by Louise Erdrich and The Master by Colm Toibin. I will put up threads at the start of the respective months.
